Hi.
We are planning a trip where 2 of us will have a dining plan and and 2 will not. Will I be able to make dining reservations for all 4 of us 180 days in advance?”

Hello Janet!

Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel! We are delighted to answer your first question.

No visit to the Walt Disney World Resort is complete without enjoying its several amazing dining locations. Some venues are extremely popular and advance dining reservations are highly recommended.

You are more than welcome to make reservations for your entire party 180 days in advance. It does not matter if some have a Disney Dining Plan and others don’t. At the time you decide to pay your bill, simply tell your server that some will use dining plan entitlements and others will use another form of payment. If you wish to treat your friends to a special meal, you can also use your dining plan entitlements to do so. Again, all you have to do is let your server know you will be using your Disney Dining Plan to pay for your whole party’s meal.

I hope this helps you while planning, Janet. Thank you for stopping by the Disney Parks Moms Panel.
